This round is going to definetly test me!! I've never written a song with 2 choruses before so can't wait to give it ago! xxx

You were against a lot of talent but still your song shone out :) I was really impressed!! It's easier to use two choruses if you're telling a story - not straight out but imagine it like that :)

This was originally a song I wrote about a week back called Rear View Mirror but recently I wrote a chorus that I thought fitted sooo much better, so with a few small alterations, I present to you... Love Luck and Faith!

This is yet another song about my summer with the same guy, and I just wish he'd come back.

I have serious doubts that I'll win, and I just want to congratulate everyone else in this round with me, because I couldn't be up against more talented lyricists than y'all and I love every single one of y'alls work

Love Luck and FaithVerse 1
I recall waking up that morning
To the smell of the grass
And the sound of your breath
And the steam on the glass

We’d been up all night
Dancing in your KC lights

I remember the turns took
Driving home so unsteady
The twists and the bumps
The whiskey’d made you heady

Don’t matter that it weren’t right
As long as we never saw them blue lights

Chorus
Get back down to...
The house by the creek and the little love seat
Where the fire blew out in the cool summer breeze
Where just past the thistles the dirt road glistened
And we’d always find time for plenty of kissing

Get back down to...
Where the trees grew high beneath the apricot sky
Because it felt like every second with you just flew by
I wore my ripped up jeans with the holes in the knees
And all we had was love luck and faith and no guarantees

Verse 2
I recollect memories of your smile
And the taste of your lips
I blocked them out until I thought
I felt your hand on my hips

Singing me every lullabye in the book
Til it turned to your favourite Def Leppard hook

I sometimes mention the colour of your eyes
Or the shade of your hair
And pretend to answer for you
As if you’re stood right there

And I’ll try to think of the good times
Because they’re all I have to prove that you’re mine

Chorus
Get back down to...
The house by the creek and the little love seat
Where the fire blew out in the cool summer breeze
Where just past the thistles the dirt road glistened
And we’d always find time for plenty of kissing

Get back down to...
Where the trees grew high beneath the apricot sky
Because it felt like every second with you just flew by
I wore my ripped up jeans with the holes in the knees
And all we had was love luck and faith and no guarantees

Bridge
Looking back in retrospect
It was all a little tainted
But you could get me wrecked ‘til every tear was wept
And I still wouldn’t want to change it

Chorus
Get back down to...
The house by the creek and the little love seat
On that cool summer night where you first said you loved me
I’d walk just past the thistles and then I’d hear you whistle
Falling back in the dirt and then we’d kiss a little

Get back down to...
Where the trees grew high beneath the apricot sky
You’d pick your constellations and I’d pick mine
You said you loved my ripped up jeans with the holes in the knees
And all we had was love luck and faith and you and me baby

Heyy

This is my entry. It's called Glowing Red. I wrote it about a month ago and I changed a few things and I think it's much better now.

I got the idea for this song when I read somewhere that a red moon is to symbolise danger is coming or something bad is going to happen. So I thought of the line 'I should've known' and so yeah that's where it all came from.

I would just like to say that I have no idea how I managed to get into the grand final when I'm against all of you guys!!! The songs everyone writes are beautful and inspire me to write harder! Every one of you could make a carree from writting songs!!
Congrats to everybody!!!

Glowing Red

Verse 1:
I kept believing in you
I felt like flying when looking in your eyes
Well it didn't last for long
The heartbreak hit me hard
I would've sworn that my heart torn in half
In that one little moment

Chorus 1:
Come hear me now, come hear me now
In this one moment
Let your fears run wild
Hatred, breakdown, fake love, fighting
Can you hear me now
I should've know better should've known better
The man in the moon was glowing red
He was burning red
The end was near but I was too niave

Verse 2:
I bet you think, I forgot about you now
The truth is that my mind is taking its sweet time erasing you
How long does it take to forget
The spark in your eyes when you smiled
How long does it take to forget
When you walked out the door and took my heart with

Chorus 2:
Come hear me now, come hear me now
In this one moment
Let your fears run wild
Regret, heartbreak, fiction, give up
Can you hear me now
I should've know better should've known better
The man in the moon was glowing red
He was burning red
The end was near but I was too niave

Bridge:
You know, love seems to be so short
But forgetting is so long

Chorus 3:
Come hear me now, come hear me now
In this one moment
Let your fears run wild
Distance, silence, timing, mistakes
Can you hear me now
I should've know better should've known better
The man in the moon was glowing red
He was burning red
The end was near but I was too niave

Re: TaylorRose's Song Writing Competition!!

Sat, Apr 13, 2013 at 11:45 PM

Okay, here's my entry! My decision was between two songs, but I chose this one so we're all writing about the same subject. I really hope you like it, this was impossible to write. Good luck to you guys, you're amazing songwriters, it's an honor to be in this round with you. (Sorry it's so long and if I'm not allowed to say the h word!)

Title: “Yesterday Ben”

Verse 1:
If you were here, what would you say?
If you knew I’ve been locking your memory away.
Maybe all this passion would make you afraid,
But I honestly believe you feel the same way.

I remember
You used to be in the band,
Playing my favorite songs on the bass.
They didn’t sound the same,
But I loved them more that way.

Pre-Chorus:
I said goodbye to brown eyes,
It killed me on the inside,
But people know, despite my lies.

Chorus:
Down the street is an empty house
It’s nothing without you.
You left me in a lonely ghost town.
With nobody to run to.
Do you look back on all those times
And say to hell with lonely lives?
It’s been a while, I hope you didn’t forget.
6 years of love, happiness, and some regret.
I remember it like yesterday
I hear it all like yesterday, Ben.

Verse 2:
It all started on that summer day,
The beginning of second grade.
It all ended 6 years later,
But you never really faded away.
If I saw you again, I don’t know what I’d say.
Maybe I’d just say hi, but maybe I’d beg you to stay.
Maybe I’d be weak and tell you I love you.
Maybe you’d be honest and say you love me too.

It’s just past midnight,
The moon is out now.
I’ve just woken with a fright
I dreamt of you,
Something that’s not allowed.

Pre-Chorus:
I said goodbye to brown eyes,
It killed me on the inside,
But people know, despite my lies.

Chorus 2:
In this house you can’t hear a sound,
It’s silent without you.
You left me like a ghost, just wandering around
With nobody to run to.
Do you say my name when you’re alone
And maybe think you were stupid to go?
Maybe it echoes off the walls
Or does it creep into your sad thoughts?
It’s been forever, I hope you don’t forget.
6 years of life, love, and some regret.
I remember it like yesterday
I see it all like yesterday, Ben.

Bridge:
When you drove around here,
On that final drive, did you think of me?
I won't be close, not anywhere near,
But we were everything, don't you agree?
After all those years how could you leave?
If love’s not like lightning, it’s not there, stop fighting.
Convince me, stop crying, you know he’s not trying.
Broken words I say to myself, I'm in denial.
But maybe you're coming back,
How would I even know?

In this house you can’t hear a sound,
You left me in a lonely ghost town.
It was with me just yesterday,
How was it just yesterday, Ben?
Finally the maybes have run out.
Lately, they’re all I think about.

I won? I can't believe it, oh my goodness I'm getting so emotional right now! I honestly thought SwiftieKat was going to win with her beautiful song, or sparklexxx because I'm a huge fan of both of their work! No words... just thank-you and I love you. Thank-you. I love you.
